What made you think I thought the US isn't authoritarian?
Authoritarian means the government deciding what people can do or say beyond preventing actual harm to others, or causing harm to their subjects to promote the government's interest to the detriment of the people.
Overthrowing other governments is imperialism, not authoritarianism - I'd define thr latter as largely internal, exceptions being eg. Singapore's laws applying to Singaporean citizens and residents even when they're outside of Singapore.
That doesn't sound patient, frankly if you're buying games and not playing them that sounds distracted and wasteful
